We are busy working on plans for the Winter 2022-2023 season. Here are some details:
REGISTRATION & FEE
Registration is not open yet. We're hoping to open registration in the next few weeks, but still have details to work out, including registration fees.
COACHES
All youth sports are struggling with a significant decrease in adult volunteers willing to serve as coaches and basketball is no exception. Recently, e-mails were sent to all former coaches from the most recent 2019-2020 season to see if they planned to return as coaches. Of the 37 teams from that season, only a small number of coaches have indicated that they plan to return. Many coaches' children have aged-out or switched winter sports in CYO's two-year absence. We need more adult volunteers to serve as coaches. If you are interested in being a coach, please contact us.
SEASON
We anticipate that all 3 of our programs will runl however, that is ultimately dependent on registration numbers. Our programs are: the clinic, the intramural leagues, and the travel league. For information on these programs, visit our Programs & Fees webpage (note: the 2022-2023 fees are not yet set)
-
Clinic - the clinic is expected to begin in early December
-
Intramural Leagues - the intramural league is expccted to begin practices in mid-November. Games will begin in early December, with playoffs ending in mid-March.
-
Travel Teams - Tryouts for travel teams will be held toward the end of October. The final roster must be submitted to the county CYO office by October 30th. Practices will begin shortly after tryouts. The season will run from early December to March (depending on the team's regular season and playoff performance).
NEXT STEPS
We are still working out details regarding gym usage with the Hyde Park Central School District. We hope to have this resolved soon. When registration does open, the registration period will be short. Please check our website, www.reginacoelicyo.org, regularly for registration updates.
